Autopsy AFL 2026 Round 9 - Suns v Saints Sat May 9th 7:10pm AEST/6:40pm (TIO)

Tom De Koning is earning 1.7 mil a year.

That’s nearly 10k a possession or whatever it is

Flanders is somehow just as bad, least Silvagni has been very good and worth the cash

 

[Atomboy]

And they had to rest the guy on $2mpa because he’s knackered a few weeks in.

Gubby and SOS doing great things.

Yeah yeah mate we get it, you are still smarting that your privileges have been called out and revoked.

Just like Scomo though, you’ll get over it. You don’t hold your own hose after all.

I would have given Flanders votes tonight but whatever suits your agenda I guess.

 

[bungalow_bill]

1.8 since quarter time for the Sainters. Can't blame the maggots for that

Nope I blame the Northern academies

You are generous that’s for sure. If TDK isn’t the biggest waste of money he’s fairly close. What was the point in plonking 3 million bucks to come the same position as last year?

Oh sorry, I thought we were talking about Ned Flanders.

Nope I blame the Northern academies

And rugby league

 

[Teflon]

Half a side and competitive
Happy to play Suns at Marvel with a full team Rd 24 !

 

[Toffee Lion]

Honestly a good performance from the Saints, while undermanned.

I'm not sold on the nepo babies this year.

 

[Osho]

Dimma's Nepos love knocking over Ross's Whingers.

Rowell coming back should help in theory but Petracca coming in seems to have thrown off Anderson

Tom De Koning is earning 1.7 mil a year.

Has to be one of the most baffling list management decisions. They have Marshall who was already a more than decent ruck. TDK was hardly a need and the amount they spent for him for what he's delivering is just absurd.

They should've targeted Curnow (he was a trade rather than FA, but the point remains).

 

[voorhees]

Riolis best game as a Sun.

He's played some rippers for the suns, but yes..he was excellent tonight.

 

[GC2015]

The Saints went with the first quarter ambush and then didn't do a whole lot for the remaining three terms. We just had to grind them down for the remaining three quarters and that's exactly what we did. I think the commentators said tonight was the first time this year that St Kilda have gone goalless in a quarter so I don't think their first quarter ambush tactic was a particularly smart one in the testing Darwin conditions that the Suns are more accustomed to. Each to their own, though.

 

[Sully111]

Even with Ryan, Higgins, King missing from our forward line, had we not lost Nas and Wilkie we would have rolled them, particularly if we'd played the at an AFL quality venue.

Suns really aren't that good.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Lions after we completed our rorts. Think that's the Blues & Port down below.

Entertaining thread. Perfectly set up by Saints going up by 25 and Suns being sh*t in the first quarter.

Nice to see Ross being jovial at quarter time. Not so much later in the game.

Apparently, Bassett guaranteed a win

Let's see what Ross will whinge about at presser.

Never disappoint Saints.

Northern academies?

 

[Jirik13]

Northern academies?

Add tough travel

Gee whiz. Surely not...

[Sarcoidevo]

It was Bassats mum. Hard to follow pictures and words at the same time.
